That's what I imagine.. just something fractured. If the jaw itself is literally broken I don't think you can talk.. I'm no doctor though

According to the team, Stepan underwent X-rays after he left the ice following the hit and they came back negative. He was subsequently cleared to play, but the team sent him to a specialist Friday morning, where a more detailed scan revealed the fracture.

Vigneault would not say whether he expects Stepan to return in this series.

"We'll have an idea of the time frame [Saturday]," Vigneault said.

i had a broken arm that had to be rebroke because it was healing wrong

i had a broken collar bone i didnt do anything about

Guy, is this your first time watching hockey?

Players return to the same game after a broken whatever all the time. Usually, they don't know it's broken til they are examined after the game.

Earlier this year, Burrows had his jaw broken and finished the game, too.
